Lonnie Greene rebuilt Purdue's program from a cellar dweller to a big ten championship, and two runner up finishes, within five yrs. They finished top 8 in the Ncaa. You critics are crazy, nothing will satisfy you.

That's exactly right. Purdue was a big nothing burger before he got there and now they're in the mix at the NCAA level. Dude can recruit and coach. What else do y'all want for crying out loud.

Sadly enough the track coaching profession is about getting people to make noise about yourself more then anything else.
The 'fraternity wants to see the Purdue head coach as a supercoach well deserving of the KY job, while the SIU one on the other hand as incompetent.
Now if you actually look at the numbers, SIU is more balanced on both genders with similar NCAA points and finishes and amazing competitive all around teams. Their best results rival with Purdue on the sprints side and its getting done in the MVC ....
Yeah its on Purdue staff as well , the throws assist. coach that was there before seemed to have produced more NCAA points then the Purdue HC so far...
But nothing to see here, keep bringing up the Purdue dude until he gets a nicer better power 5 job. I d be curious to see these coaches that had only coached at big name schools how theyd fair up in a mid major.

Ridiculous. Purdue is one of the biggest turnaround programs in the nation, and no disrespect intended toward the SIU staff.

Flo is a cool dude and his staff enjoy working for him. Just jealous garbage out there when people get their tails beat up. Look for several to join him at UT.

Welcome to the boards, Edrick. You should probably talk to your assistants and ask them directly if you think people enjoy working for you so much. The fact you don't see this is purely a testament to that ego.

Explain? What has he done for his assistants to not enjoy working for him?
